IPC: G11B33/04
Filed: 2005-12-22
Abstract: A media storage organizer and method as disclosed relate to a storage device for attachment to a support structure to hold a collection of media objects in a side-by-side generally upright manner. At least one organizer mount secures a media object support transversely to the support structure and helps the support to move along a path of travel generally parallel to the plane of the media objects. A stop limits the forward movement of the support to a display position. In one embodiment, at lease one retainer may be disposed above the media object support and spaced from an end thereof for engaging a media object to help limit the number of media objects positioned on the media object support. The retainer enables the media object to lean at an angle over the retainer against the support structure while engaging the retainer, thereby providing a gap between two portions of the collection of media objects to facilitate viewing of the faces of a media object at the gap and to facilitate flipping of the media objects about their bottom edges for media object selection purposes.

Title: System and method for controlling pressure in a surgical tourniquet
Inventor: HOVANES MICHAEL E
IPC: A61B5/025
Filed: 2004-07-30
Abstract: A system and method of controlling the pressure within a pressure cuff of a surgical tourniquet so as selectively to occlude blood flow within a portion of a limb of a patient, wherein a sensor determines when flow past the tourniquet is occurring so that corrective action may be taken, such as by increasing the pressure in the tourniquet or by notifying an operator of the flow past the tourniquet. The present invention may use an acoustic sensor to detect Korotkoff sounds indicating incipient blood flow past the tourniquet.  When such signals are detected, the tourniquet controller may either incrementally increase the pressure in the tourniquet, or if a threshold would be exceeded by such an increase, signal an alarm indicative of the blood flow.

Patent CA-2546241-A1 (CA)
Inventor: DOPF ANTHONY R
IPC: H02K5/14
Filed: 2006-05-11
Abstract: A direct current electric motor brush and brush housing arrangement, comprising means to significantly reduce the effect of brush lift in a brushed motor containing viscous fluid. The means enable viscous fluid to avoid momentum transfer into the brushes by providing two or more pressure relief channels that provide the fluid with direct means of radial exit along the direction of the brush, potentially reducing the brush lift due to the fluid being forced between a rotating commutator and its associated brushes. The pressure relief channels may be located in the housing immediately adjacent to the brush, being radially disposed to the leading face (or leading and trailing faces) of each brush, or in the leading face (or leading and trailing faces) of each brush itself, and may comprise additional channels in the housing near but not immediately adjacent the brushes.

Title: Wireless local area network radio resource management admission control
Inventor: ALI AHMED
IPC: H04B7/00
Filed: 2005-01-04
Abstract: In a wireless local area network having an access point (AP) and at least one station, wherein data is prioritized by access categories, a method for admission control begins by calculating a transmission budget for each access category (AC) and a total transmission budget for all Acs requiring admission control. A traffic stream admission request is sent from a station to the AP.  A medium time value for the traffic stream is calculated at the AP, based on information extracted from the admission request. The medium time value is compared to the transmission budget for the AC corresponding to the traffic stream and the total transmission budget. The traffic stream is accepted if the medium time value is not greater than both the transmission budget for the AC corresponding to the traffic stream and the total transmission budget;  otherwise, the traffic stream is rejected.
